Menu for Woodlea Bakery in Baltimore, MD

Good donuts and pastries. Cakes are fine. Prices are reasonable, especially compared to other local places. Biggest problem... staffing. The sales people are super friendly but there is usually only one, maybe two people working per day and most seem tobe to be perpetually in training. *Don't bother calling, chances are you'll be be put on hold forever.* There's no automatedsystem to tell you holiday hours and there is no social media presence to check either. Best bet is to physically show up andhope they're open and have what you want. Read more

My family and I have gone to Woodlea Bakery for years but over the years especially within the last two we have all noticed a... change in not only the ingredients but the customer service as well. My brother preordered a birthday cake for his wife to bepicked up the next day. When I went to pick the cake up I immediately noticed the icing was cracking all over. I went back intothe bakery to explain that the cake looked old and the older clerk who assisted me made me feel as though I did something wrong.I have gotten numerous cakes from this bakery and none of them have EVER looked like what I picked up yesterday. The clerkinsisted the cake was fresh and said the icing cracked because it was probably moved around in the box. This still doesn?t makesense to me and I had only had the cake in my possession for less than five minutes, I didn?t even make it to my car as you cansee the picture attached is me standing outside of their bakery. The only time I?ve noticed icing cracking or chipping is if thecake has sat for some days and harden. Buttercream icing shouldn?t crack if it?s fresh. I felt like a lot of time was wasted ondeciding how to resolve the issue when the prime solution should have been to either remake a fresh cake or provide me withsomething similar the moment I brought the cake back into the bakery. The clerk who assisted me also stated the cake I waspicking up was the same cake my brother picked out. All of the icing on the other similar birthday cakes in their display caselooked soft and fresh, why was the icing on the cake that I was picking up appearing hardened and cracked? Why would you passoff product that is subpar? If I were running a bakery that very cake would have NEVER crossed my counter and into a customershands. I went to pick this cake up on my lunch break and because of this situation I was late getting back to work. In the end Iwas given a different cake which looked much more fresh and the icing was not cracking all over wh Read more

The giant ???? donut was fluffy, light and kept going after it insistently. The mini German chocolate bite and strawberry cheese... cake bite was divine. Bought my mom's 75th bday cake, carrot cake????! I'll be back to review it Read more
